Having debuted its Pro AI notetaker last year, Plaud has debuted a new version of its NotePin model at CES 2026.
The $180/£160 NotePin S is designed to attach to your clothing via a detachable magnet or clip, though there’s a lanyard, too.
Like the Pro, there’s a button to start and stop recordings, while it can also be pressed during recordings to highlight a moment.
I’ve been using the NotePin S during the first press conferences of CES and the new button is useful, while starting and stopping recordings is a lot easier than on the predecessor NotePin.
As with its sister products, the recordings are uploaded to a mobile app where they can be automatically transcribed, with AI-generated highlights and action points.
300 minutes a month of transcription are included for free, after which you’ll need to pay for more minutes. Various packages are avalable, though $99.99 a year gives you 1200 minutes a month.
Plaud has also launched a desktop version of its app for users who want to be able to handle recordings on their PC or Mac. While recordings can also be accessed via the web as well as in the mobile app, the real power of Plaud Desktop is that it can auto-detect and record your online meetings for later retrieval.
